DH Set Report Plus Photos, Video

Last week we aimed to bring you as much coverage as possible from the night shoots of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows which was taking place in central London. Staffer Lorena was present both nights of filming, and she has now sent us her complete set report: no detail has been spared!

We have also added more footage and pictures from that night courtesy of Annamaria and Kristina! See more exclusive shots from filming in our gallery! Another video montage of the cast and crew on set has also been put together and can be seen here via YouTube. Thank you so much for sharing, ladies!

One last bit of news: Brazilian film site, Omelete, has published new character posters for Half-Blood Prince. Unlike the previous set released by Warner Brothers, these are much darker and feature Ron in casual clothes with the werewolf Fenrir Greyback lurking in the background. Click here to see it, and thank you to Oclumencia for the tip!

David Yates in Baltimore Sun

Just as I clicked on a link to an article on David Yates in the Baltimore Sun, my son started watching the Hairspray DVD, and Good Morning, Baltimore blared out and confused me!

Anyway, it is a fascinating article, and you can read it here, where he says some WONDERFUL things about Rupert...

"He's always been the funny one, but he has so much more as an actor than that. In Prince, he has lovely stuff that's funny and true, but in Deathly Hallows, he must be defensive and haunted, and Rupert took to that like a duck to water."

Behind-the-Scenes Facts from Harry Potter 6

Moviefone has published 5 Fun Facts from the set of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. These facts divulge information about the cast's reaction to Dumbledore's "outing," how many takes the Ron/Lavendar kiss took, and why Rupert won't be selling ice cream anytime soon!

It takes "about 10 takes" for the perfect kiss. Or at least that's how many takes Rupert Grint estimates were shot for the first of a few smooches between Ron and Lavender (Jessie Cave). "Quite embarrassing" is how the reserved Grint describes the scene's filming. "We were both quite nervous and [director David Yates] was really good and only let it go on for about 10 takes." Only? To make matters worse, Grint and Lavender were performing for a live audience. "I had a room full of people cheering," Grint says. Well, he must be doing something right.

See the rest here! And thanks to ONTD for the news.

The Official Harry Potter Exhibition in Chicago

The Official Harry Potter Exhibition at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry opens later this week, but a few lucky people have already been round the exhibition.

One lucky soul was my friend, Jen, who took her family and her notebook and took the responsibility of being one of the first fans to see everything very seriously.

You can read her wonderful report here.

Cherrybomb to be Screened at Cannes

The Little Film Company has announced their line-up of films to be screened at the Cannes Film Festival next month.

It's exciting to note, then, that Cherrybomb has been included on this roster of films to be screened!

The film is currently scheduled to screen one day only on Thursday, May 14th at 9.30am at the Riviera 2 theatre.

We'll update as more information is made available, but please be aware it is unlikely Rupert will attend due to continued filming taking place on Harry Potter 7!

Recap: Night #2 of London DH Filming

Last night marked the second night of on location flming for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in central London.

An avalanche of photos and videos are still continuing to make their way online and we have been updating our galleries to reflect that. To see images from Night #2, Click here. High res are also available here.

As mentioned, staffer Lorena was again at the set yesterday, however she noted that security was much tighter. She has also reported that there was filming taking place in a very narrow alleyway (see photo) which may have involved Death Eaters.

There's still a lot to be uploaded, and we'll update accordingly. It is believed tonight will be the final night of these on location shoots in London. Credit to DHMoviePics, Superior Pics, and Oclumencia for some of the images found in our gallery!

UPDATE: Lorena just got in from checking out the locations that filming was taking place Monday and Tuesday nights, and nothing is being shot tonight at Piccadilly Circus or Tottenham Court Road. Keep you posted if anything changes.

There is also one more video we'd like to share! This footage shows the Trio filming a quick scene where they jump back from the curb, perhaps avoiding a bus they hadn't seen coming. Click here to see it.

HUGE thanks to Lorena for all of this! Lorena is, in fact,back on the job tonight in London where filming is expected to continue. We'll see if she was able to get the lowdown for us again!

Deathly Hallows Shoot in Central London

So my friends, one of the most exciting scenes of Deathly Hallows was filmed last night in Piccadilly Circus of Central London. Myself and some cool ladies went down and spent the evening with the Harry Potter 7 crew, extras, and trio!

I'm working on getting photos up for the site as well as video, so STAY tuned!

Keep an eye on our Twitter for the video and photo updates as we're trying to keep up with the news. Once I've got everything uploaded and my brain starts to function properly again...I'll be on the forums answering questions and giving full details on the night(s)! Plural, yes! I've started a thread, for news and stories to come in.

[Forum Discussion]

Cherrybomb Review from Belfast Film Festival

There's no better person, in our opinion, to give a review of Cherrybomb than a native of Belfast. Luckily, this is just what we have here!

After seeing the film at the Beflast Film Festival on March 30th, RG.net staffer Barbs has written this review for us with her local perspective on the film!

Excerpt: In a sold-out theatre, I couldn't help but feel incredibly lucky to be sitting alongside so many cast members and crew, anxiously waiting to see the premiere of a movie that is local to me: Cherrybomb. Most movies about Northern Ireland seem to have a running theme of 'the troubles', politics and religion, but here many stereotypes were successfully cast off, and a new identity created. 'A New Belfast' is how Cherrybomb was described by both Lisa Barros D'Sa and Glenn Leyburn in the post-Cherrybomb Q&A session, and rightly so.

Read the rest here (slight spoilers). And big thanks to Barbs!

UPDATE: See high res of the most recent Half-Blood Prince character poster featuring Ron and Ginny here, thanks to DR.com!
